Welcome everyone back to another Unmute.

We want to just as a quick reminder here at the top, remind everyone that we're going

to take first hands.

If we have time, we'll take second,

but also we want to remind everyone to be respectful.

If you wanna get all your questions answered,

be respectful to everyone,

the same as you would want yours to be respected.

Also, if you need to get ahold of us,

questions, comments, anything like that,

you can reach us at feedback@unmute.show.

And today we're gonna be doing all things script talk,

so that'll be fun.

And in the meantime,

Let's get Michael to give us a couple of quick announcements.

How's it going, Michael?

• It's going well, Marty.

I appreciate it.

And I appreciate each of you for taking time out of your day

for joining us either in the podcast live stream

or here in Zoom.

So as you know, I like to go over some of the content

that we've recently published in case you have missed it.

And one of the pieces of content that you probably heard

when you were in the,

when you are subscribed to the podcast feed

is the advertisement that Marty and I threw together

pretty quickly.

I think it turned out okay,

but I do kind of have a biased opinion.

In addition, after that,

we published a interesting piece from a voice,

community members already know very well,

and that is Lucy,

and she came and graciously shared with us

a breakdown of the A-lady devices,

specifically with a screen.

So if you've ever been curious, why would I want a screen?

Why do I need to interact with my A-Lady device?

I can just use my voice well worth the listen

to listen to Thursday's episode,

search for a mute presents on your favorite podcast platform.

And then Marty did a demonstration of a new tool

to about a hundred starts at about $130

and it's a USB microphone that he bought

and he really likes because it's quick and easy

to get a decent sounding recording.

It's called the Sennheiser profile microphone.

and you did a review of it and a recording.

And if you're interested, you can go listen to that.

That was published on Sunday.

So that's a quick recap of what we've published recently.

And remember, you can search for unmute presents

on your favorite podcast platform.

Marty, why don't you introduce our guests today,

which people are excited to hear from?

• Yes, I would like to introduce Jenna Reed,

director of marketing to talk to us all about script talk.

And Jenna, thanks for being here and take it away.

• Thanks so much, Marty.

Welcome guys.

If you have any questions, let's try to wait till the end.

But if something I say is not loud enough

or it's confusing, please don't hesitate to jump in

and I will answer and try to clarify.

So our company, we're fortunate,

we're based on the West Coast of Florida.

So we're down in Florida.

We've been around now for over 25 years.

A lot of people might not know that, but yeah,

we started out in Veterans Affairs.

We're
